My Image

I look in the mirror and I'm not sure of what I find
satisfying.
I'm never satisfied mentally nor physically.
I look at the person staring back at me and I wonder:
" Am I really what people tell me?".
Look at every angle, every curve, every imperfection and yet I still don't know what to think.
I sink deep into my thoughts trying to decide if they are ever right.
Am I really lovely?,
Am I really ugly?,
Am I stupid?,
Am I useless?,
Am I worthless?,
Am I intelligent?,
Am I heaven - sent?,
Tell me what am I?.
I don't think I'm insecure nor do I think I have an ego.
However, there are times when I can't let go of the things people tell me.
I'm not that sure of what could the problem be with me.
Is it that I just don't really see what people see?.
Why can't I see my reflection the way others can?.
Tell me why can't I see my image the way it is in my eyes?.
